coast crab

I don't know if this info will help anyone or not - but here goes...

I bought my Siam ruby in the spring of 2008, and it came back up just fine in the ground for 2009 and was beautiful all summer. Last winter was really cold and wet and by the first part of May I still saw no signs of it. I went ahead bought another when I had the chance and planted it is the same spot. I figured the other had rotted. Well, I did find some solid corms that were trying to sprout so I potted them up. Yesterday I noticed that the marginatta I assumed was gone is up about 6 inches tall.

So that's the story from 8b and I'm stickin' to it - and that's even with a really really bad winter. 8a may be questionable in the ground, but seems like it would be fine in 9.
